Is V i is. v D. Cameglo ghe was a student at Texas Wesleyan College Col-lege when a young boy from New Zealand enrolled. en-rolled. He was at once classed as "different" than which among the young and inexperienced there-seems to be no greater calamity. He was far from home and friends and no one extended ex-tended a friendly hand. He had sad and forlorn mannerisms, was lost in a new world of strange faces and cold hearts. Yes, ur colleges are like that; I've seen many similar instances. Miss Gilmartin's sympathy was aroused so when Sadie Hawkins Day came when the girls reversed the custom and showered attention on the boys she decided to do something about the strange and lonely lad. She had heard someone sjv that he did song and dance'numbers back home. When h saw that he was taking no part in the activities, she rpoVe to the program director about him with the result that he was asked to do a number. While on the stage he seemeJ twts formed, and the applause he got made him actually enjoy himself. The next day Miss Gilmartin complimented him on bis performance; she noticed, too, that others spoil him. From that day on she did what she could for the oftce without his knowledge, and she found her own life fi0, richer, happier because of helping someone else. Why don't you look around and prove to yoarslf t Miss Gilmartin's. method will work.

TTt ...A Year , to T Tattoo on Dog's Leg Simplifies snlification I.OS ANGELES. At least 500,-000 500,-000 heartaches a year will be saved dog lovers when "identacod-ing" "identacod-ing" tntooing a dog's license number num-ber permanently on its leg becomes be-comes a national practice. "he d jg tattooing idea first was Introduced in the K-9 corps, for positive identification of the canine rookies. It was first used on a -livilian basis by H. Graham Conar, internationally known horseman and dog authority, in 1946, In a private dog club he organized in uos Angeles. Ihe idea received additional lm-oetus lm-oetus when the national dog record bureau, a nonprofit corporation, was started, with Conar as president and James Schermerhorn Jr., former for-mer Detroit newspaperman, as vice-president. vice-president. Since its Inception, the idea has received wide acclaim and acceptance accept-ance from law enforcement agencies agen-cies and anticruelty societies all over the nation, Conar claims. According Ac-cording to Alexander Tilley, general manager of the Los Angeles SPCA, and southern California humane society, identacoding will have wider applications than tattooing of pedigreed and valuable pets. Dogs Are Highly Prised Many a mutt is so highly prized by a family, they would not consent to sell it for all the tea in China; vet a week is the longest such a mutt will live in a pound. After Lhat, if unclaimed, It is gassed to nuke room for more hapless little waifs. "Out of 20 dogs we get at the shelter," 'Tilley says, "only one is caught with a license tag. Out of 19 dogs, three may be claimed by jwners. Out of the 16 remaining, another four may fiu4 new owners. The remaining 12 are destroyed. Multiply this number by the number of ities. hamlets and counties, and you get an appalling death toll." i'tlley estimates that 50,000 dogs ire destroyed yearly In New York md 25.000 in Los Angeles alone. He 'miiks that 500,000 is a conseivative figure for the number of unfortunate unfortu-nate pets which die In the gas chamber every year. Tajs Are Missing Another argument in favor of dog tattooing, Tilley says, are dog owners own-ers themselves. "In the 71 years of lur SPCA work," he says, "most of them simply would not be educated edu-cated to keeping the dog's license tag on him 11 the time. And usually usu-ally it is the time when the license ag is oft that the pet gets lost" during the war, when the tags were made of soybean plastic, the dogs used to eat their tags like biscuits, and when caught without identification were Just so much closer to the gas chamber. To prevent dog records from being be-ing destroyed in a fire or any other catastrophe, the master microfilmed micro-filmed files are kept in a hank vault In Los Angeles and New York. At th moment the organization is administered ad-ministered from Los Angeles for the western region; from Kansas City for the central region; and from New York for the eastern region. Other offices are being licensed li-censed dally and there is even talk of he organization going international interna-tional within a year, with offices in all principal cities of the world. Notice to Anglers: New Scooterpoopers Lure Bass GREENWOOD. S. C The day may come when a fisherman will remark to his companion, "You'd better change the record, the bass aren't hitting that one." ' If it does, the credit would go to Alex Woodle, Greenwood's fishing Jeweler, who has developed a noise-making noise-making lure that has proved popular popu-lar with the local fish and fishermen. fisher-men. Woodle has long worked on the theory that fish were attracted by certain noises. He made experiments experi-ments In which he tried to incorporate incor-porate noise-making qualities into his baits. On of his first efforts contained the works of a watch. It caught fish, but It proved too expensive and too disposed to break down. Now he has devised hollow metal box that amplifies the sound of turning propellers on the bait He calls It the scooterpooper. It makes a distinct whirring sound as it is retrieved, attracting all the bass within hearing distance. Eccentric Recluse Wills Greta Garbo Bi Tax Bill ALLEGAN COUNTY, MICH.-Film MICH.-Film Actress Greta Garbo will realize real-ize little if anything from an estate willed to her by an eccentric recluse, re-cluse, it appears. A final account filed in probate court here of the American assets of the late Edgar Donne, Allegan county farmer, revealed $1,119 with claims and taxes of $2,099 due. Approximately $19,999 in assets in England also probably will be wiped out by inheritance taxes, court officials believe. Spokesmen for Miss Garbo said that whatever proceeds accrued from the estate of the 78-year-old Donne, who had never seen the a,ctress, would go to charily. Crippled Fi;!i3rman Uses Cane to Land Cij Catfish NEBURG, IND.-John St.-icer. Neburg justice of the peace, has a fish story with a new twist. Stacer, who is crippled und walks with a cane, claims that he landed a 70-pound catfish in the Ohio river with the aid uf his walking stick. He said he hooked the fish on a trotlme but the hook snapped when he tried to land the fish with a gaff. So Stacer grabbed his cane, put the crook in the fish's gills and Jerked the big fish into his boat. Bullets Fail to Irk Farmer Who Waits for News of Baby BINGHAMTON, N. Y. - Randall Hitchcock of nearby Chenango Bridge was sitting in a hotel in Bogota, Colombia, as snipers' bullets bul-lets whizzed around during the rioting riot-ing there. That was bad enough, but Hitchcock Hitch-cock was even more worried about his wife back home. She was expecting ex-pecting a baby. As the dismal hours passed, he heard sputterings from the small short-wave radio set he'd carried with him. "Randall Hitchcock, Randall Hitchcock," called a voice. "If you're listening, your wife has had a fine baby boy and you're a proud father. Mother and baby ' doing nicely." The ""voice was that of Wolfie Wolfinger, an amateur radio operator oper-ator at Hillcrest, near Hitchcock's home. "It was the biggest moment of my life," said Hitchcock, despite the danger from the bullets and mobs of the revolution. A tree fell on a Springville artist, breaking his arm. That's nothing, compared to what some artists have done to trees. , e) SIMMONS LUMBER AND HARDWARE 0 OREM SAFETY COUNCIL FAIRBANKS MORTUARY . ... ... .... , ....... . ,. GENEVA TRANSPORTATION GO. U.

In the West Except for fruit raisers, incomes high, prospects for continuing high incomes good because be-cause of increasing population, borne improvements widespread. Ruth C. Freeman, University of Illinois specialist in home accounts, who made the Midwest study, said that rural family living has been 'greatly enhanced" in recent years. "The oppoitunity for choice in connection with, family living purchases pur-chases has given .the homemaker a different outlook on life," she laid. "A feeling of security has been tieveloped through the family's accumulated savings, payment of debts, and prospect of some stability sta-bility of income through farm price supports." in 1917 a typical farm family spent two and a half times as much as they did the year before on household equipment, the most commonly purchased items being vacuum cleaners, washing machines, ma-chines, stoves, refrigerators, and nome freezer lockers.
